Since we are speculating on what the Study Group report should speak to:
How might the actual aftermath of the war be conducted, beginning with the surrender of Baghdad in spring 2003, given the stirred Sunni/Shite/Kurd dynamics which continue to fester until addressed?
How can the U.S. and allies deal most practically with the now ingrained perception of all Iraqi citizens that they are an occupied country not responsible for their own destiny?
Rephrase these two questions however you would like in order to make them clearer. Thorny issues, but they are, and always have been the crux of the core problem to be solved.
